1 ATTO provides Fibre Channel solutions
The ATTO Celerity Fibre Channel family of storage products provides connectivity, intelligence and
scalability. Celerity FC storage adapters simplify advanced storage networking needs such as
switching, backup and data management. Specifically designed to enhance the functionality of third
party fabric hardware and software, Celerity FC products are the industry-leading platform for storage
connectivity
Celerity FC-42ES Adapter
The Celerity FC-42ES is a dual-channel storage
adapter, providing port density for Enterprise
server and workstation applications. The FC-
42ES leverages two next-generation storage
technologies: PCI Express interconnect and 4-
Gigabit Fibre Channel. With 4-Gb FC speeds of
up to 800 MB/second per channel, the FC-42ES
supports the most demanding application
requirements, including high-definition video,
rich content databases and other high-bandwidth
environments.
Additionally the FC-42ES takes advantage of the
latest in host interconnect technology, PCI
Express, a serial, high-speed connection that
supports aggregate throughput up to 2 GB/second
(x8 PCIe). The FC-42ES is software compatible
with existing PCI and PCI-X products using the
same device drivers as the other Celerity FC
family products, simplifying user installation and
support.
The Celerity FC-42ES is backward compatible
with existing 2-Gb and 1-Gb Fibre Channel
infrastructure, protecting existing technology
investments.
